Today we had a tournament for a really obscure fighting game - Superior Soldiers. We had a lot of fun playing it, but pretty quickly one character stood out as top tier above all the rest: Satinsect. Reptilian was really overpowered as well, but Satinsect's pokes, dash cancels, and touch of death dizzy combos really put him above the rest.

imagine if there's a longstanding community around this game and they come out of the woodwork to say "this character is midtier at best"
“Just tele-cancel hp to fuIIscreen super w/ Cattydox’s unblockable TOD.”
@@december12twok12 this game doesnt even have supers tho
would be funny if in actuality he has more in common with Potemkin
“You could just Frame 1 Dash Block, and once you get it, you basically won the game. If you get TOD by Satinsect, it your fault. Stop overrating this balance Character”
satinsect mid tho
In Satinsect's arcade mode ending, a strange light spirit appears but gets scared of Satinsect's nails and leaves. The last dialog, as the credits scroll past Satinsect's creepy face, is: "Nobody is in the room. Only Satinsect's weird laugh was echoed".
thats dark
The spirit calls itself "Bydo" the name of the antagonist faction in R-Type.
In fact the final boss and stage is a giant R-Type reference.
@@universalperson Satinsect being too dang creepy for the Bydo sure is something.
Ned Flanders in The Simpsons Wrestling is very busted
Good projectile, extremely insane special that gives 7 shocks to the opponent that combo very easy and you can use this while holding the opponent down. And he has the ability to resurrect with full life. It's totally random, so you can lose and not respawn, or respawn 7 times in the same fight just because.
Are you a fellow whoisthisgit watcher btw?

Nothing compared to metaknight
Also mrburns is busted too
at 0:50 the character's hand overlaps with the "Win" token so it looks like he's doing a thumbs up, and that is just weirdly hilarious to me.
Beyond the fullscreen range and unreasonable speed, note the absolutely ludicrous damage on Satinsect's normals. Two or three hits outdamaged an entire Reptilian combo.
I dunno if anybody figured it out, but you can install specials during your blockstun and they come out with reversal timing. Great game.
WAT
@@Ramsey276one exactly 💯
funny how the thing that makes Satinsect broken is how tall he is
That’s actually how it is for a lot of real fighters, they know how to use their height and reach advantage to engage wile staying safe, the shorter guys has to get in but that’s where u set traps to punish him.
0:49 i love how it looks like Satinsect is giving you the 👍
XD
you bring that local tournament energy where people play dead ass games with such passion and wonder - except for you bring it to the masses of the internet and we are all the better for it. glad i found your channel and you have my support!
I saw the thumbnail and thought firebrand from UMvc3. And I thought they find something new that makes him broken
He’s broken with the proper team and execution but wouldn’t be my first character to classify as most broken in umvc3 lol
@@vichetisicky he could do some really nasty unblockables, right? I don't play UMvC3 lmao
@@luackx Yeah his airsweep was unblockable when charged fully and with the right assists you can lock people down on incoming. So youd lose one character and it was over lmao.
Yeah if you fully charged that move it was unblockable so if he got you in the corner you were done if they didn’t mess up but there were only maybe two or three notable players with Apologyman being the only one who could pull it off constantly
You mentioned Cattydox's neutral animation but Reptilian's is him humping the air 😄
He's just doing squats, man, don't be hatin' on the /fit/ lad.
To be fair, nobody looks normal in the game.
Satinsect is literally Dalsim on steroids
He’s like if you made Dhalsim and Akuma the same character
@@stevethebarbarian9876 dhalsim + dictator maybe? I don't see any fireballs or divekicks
@@joncliffmckinley5868 True, when I said Akuma I basically just meant in terms of his huge damage output combined with Dhalsim’s ridiculous fullscreen normals, rather than actually combining their kits
@@stevethebarbarian9876 fair enough
The increasing pride in those "look at this" @11:50
Amazing.
this is why im happy youtube recommended this ch i always find his videos entertaining
I’m definitely for this obscure fighting game tournament thing because I feel like there were a lot of nice ones that deserve the recognition
weaponlord!!! it might be not that obscure tho
With a name like "Satinsect" you know he's got drip. Those satin trunks are peak fashion.
That Cattydox neutral animation is on another level
The wholesome moment when he beats that insect, 10/10!
fun fact: this was developed by irem, the same guys who developed R-type and x-multiply.
Who owns their IPs now? I know Final 2 came out a while ago.
@@heardofrvb a company called "granzella"
Don't forget Ninja Baseball Batmen!
@@wolfgangervin2582 true, that one's a classic.
Superior Soliders is set within the R-Type universe.
Satinsect is the epitome of "You got carried by your character."
LTG would probably consider him Low Tier lol
Bro, JM, that was super classy to wait on your first opponent when he drsynched or afk'ed or whatever happened there!
Much respect 'cause I know like a dozen dudes that would just kept their foot on the gas, afk be damned, lol!
The fact these tournaments are really mostly just for fun and no one would really hold it against you for just playing on makes it even better IMHO.
Keep up the awesome fighting, content, and sportsmanship brother! I love it all!!
I’ve heard everyone in street fighter rainbow is absolutely bananas.
Ivan Ooze from the Power Rangers fighting game is easily the most broken.
I think that JM may have mentioned that in an older video. However, I sub to a few different gaming channels and could easily be confusing him with someone else.
Agreed
Yeah, characters like Satinsect, they still may play by the game's rules and can even lose a match against other characters, Ivan Ooze only really loses to anothet Ivan Ooze lol.
Scrolled too far to find this but at least I found it, because Ivan Ooze just built different
Ivan Ooze: most broken playable character.
The General from Kaiser Knuckle: most broken cpu boss.
Super Street Fighter Turbo max diff Zangief: most broken non boss cpu.
The fact that jm got that far against this imba character says a lot
i've watchted a couple of your videos now and man... im gotta say you sure are really fun to watch, thanks for all stuff you made. its really entertaining, especially this and the other videos where you talk about banned characters and ofc those lil tournements. thanks again its really cool.
That game 2 against Diaphone was hilarious.
Pressed a full screen poke and an anti-air and was suddenly unbeatable.
I have more respect for jmcroft than anyone in this tournament, simply because he didn’t jump to satinsect on loss
I really appreciate that in the face of this OP character, your community still takes it lightheartedly. I think the world needs more of that
It's a tournament for a game no one knows or cares about. No reason to take it seriously 😅
3:47 Caddydox has the most hilarious sand still fighting stance LOL
Maybe the most broken character in any fighting game genre is actually from a fighting game called Bushido blade 2 most people don't realize this but it's a game full of swordsmen, spearman and an overall samurai aesthetic. The two final bosses that you can fight are representative of whichever character you chose. However there is a secret character on both sides, in this game of swordsmen only two people have guns One has a pistol and one has a rifle. You want to talk about broken fighting game characters, those two are it as in Bushido blade a single hit kills you. The tactic is to consistently run around in circles and hopefully they run out of ammo and you can kill them before they activate the reload animation. But without knowing especially the first time you see them, getting killed by them and then not being able to retry is such a pain in the ass
i second this. i still cant believe the gun character exists. am glad it exists tho, mostly just for the comedy
Wow this was incredible. Great coverage of this.
These stages are sick
There is a japanese only ps2 game based on a manga called Garouden: Fist of Twist. The final secret character is Ogre from Baki and it feels like being Ogre to say the least lol
21:48 I just want Diaphone to get des.....I just want a close match, don't you?

Flash Warning for my epilepsy people out there.
Top tier sprite work talent...
...was not available during the creation of this game.
i can only suspect that a team balanced the cast, then someone came in at the end like "you know what"
Great video, plus i had a cameo in there at the 6ish mark :D Great work as always JM!
When someone tells me "Overpowered" I immediately thin of Ivan Ooze from Power Rangers
Honestly, I still think Ivan the most broken character ever
This is an interesting look into something I wouldn't have known about otherwise.
In my personal opinion, the most broken Fighting Game character I know of would be Pet Shop in Heritage for the Future. That bird is some legendary stuff.
Isn't Kakyoin also banned and better than Petshop in that same game?
kak is banned but is largely worse than petshop@@kendukin9725
My instinct was pet shop in that one 2d Jojo game. Immune to lows, disgusting damage, crazy mix-ups
Ivan ooze is the most OP character
Yes. Good click bait but no one beats Ivan ooze
@@AlexxxPerales I'm pretty sure Dark Ronald McDonald beats Ivan Ooze... But Mugen is cheating.
I was going to mention him. I remember him from the banned characters video 😛
@@vargussmeton7426 I remember him from an old video from teambestfromnow
I know that's the easiest answer but I think so too. Just being able to DP whenever you want, even in hitstun, already makes him the most OP on top of everything else
Great video, I enjoyed it totally
Meta Knight from vanilla brawl was the most OP fg character I ever played against in its day, but I’m excited to hear about Satinsect 😂
The more I watch these broken/banned fighting game character videos, the more I wonder what it would look like if they were all put into one game.

the art in this game is so perplexing. half the pixel art looks great, then the characters themselves in game look wonky as hell haha
Now THAT is what we call a zoner. He zones so hard he takes up the entire fuckin screen. No bad things can from this.
Satinsect xd what a name!
HAH! 23:10 when you put the stream visible in the stream, then it kept going that was cool lmao. i dont think ive seen that before.
Ivan Ooze, MMPR fighting game for SNES. Nuff said
Rain in UMK for SNES had a bunch of infinite juggles. Add him to the list!
Snes Cinder is up there. He has many broken tools. All of which put him in a league of his own.
i would probably say ivan ooze or petshop🤔
Superior Soldiers is the fastest way to get a epilepsy
I've seen a Taito game that's much worse. Forgot the title, but it was some shooting game and it flashes constantly.
The fact that round start makes you go MAX distance,you're already at a disadvantage against that guy.
The most OP characters in any fighting game are from the old DBZ and Gundam games where they didn't care about balance and just made every character as strong as they are in canon. They would be terrible in any sort of competitive format but as a kid they were stupid fun!
Just here for Satinsect
I love how the Reptilian dito is in both classic Blanka colors.
Reptilian was also in Renovation's Beast Wrestler onna Genesis. They even put him on the cover😉
Satinsect win pose kills me
I dunno if it counts but from memory I think the most broken char in a fighting game is from a SNES power ranger fighting game that has like a full screen (as in the entire screen) unblockable that works on every char bar 1.
Ivan Ooze
Ivan ooze is easily the most broken character in all of fighting games
@@Kawlinz Playable? Yep. Without a doubt. In general? Parace L'sia from vanilla Arcana Heart 3 makes Ivan look fair. She has unlimited meter and health regen, unblockables, tracking projectiles that put debuffs on you. One of them being reversed controls, which unless you have trained in some mountain 24/7 for months is game over and she deals absurd levels of chip damage so you die if you try to be too careful.
Oh, and did I mention she takes pity on your sorry ass and her health bar is shortened each time you rematch her? So you literally have one chance at beating her at full power.
@@mappybc6097 Ooze didn't even need to use any tools besides his barrier which is invul and combos to itself. he could opt for OP zoning if he wanted you to think you had a chance
@@joncliffmckinley5868 Read my comment again. I agreed playable Ivan Ooze is the most broken fg character ever. I was taking as a cpu opponent. Ooze and even the infamous SNK bosses like Magaki, Zero or AOF2 Geese have patterns you can exploit to beat them consistently.
Parace L'sya AI is completely random. As in any attack she has, and she has lots, can come out at anytime in any order, so there is no easy way to defeat her.
Nice Dhalsim range with command grab damage on it. Seems fair 👍
and apparently plus as fuck on the dash>HK lol
Satinsect looks right out of hybrid heaven on n64 😆
His facial expressions at 12:46 🤣🤣
Tekken 5.0 Steve has to be up there. Had a piss-easy touch of death combo that was banned in tournaments, along with a whole bunch of other bullshit.
Lmao that Godzilla fire breath flying.
Sf4 Vanilla Sagat.. 4 sure
AE Yun was definitely worse. And even in Vanilla, Akuma was arguably worse.
Ivan Ooze from the MMPR SNES game is my pick. Dude can fly, has a projectile with no startup that erases every other projectile in the game thats highly spammable and if you end up in melee, he has a shield that cancels his own hitstun. That's right, he is literally immune to being combo'd and the shield is followed up by more projectiles. He also has a punch that hits through every character's attack.
bro, if you think santisect is broken. Look up the Shark from fighting layer. He's a literal shark you try to fist fight underwater
I don't shit about competitive fighting games as I only play casually and due to being awful at them 😂
But holy crap Satinsect is ridiculous WHAT. "Hey about a hitbox of... The whole stage?"
Let’s go love the mvc2 content
It must be like Satan Insect, so pronounced like Satansect, surely?
e: Jeez that idle animation from Cattydox sure is something
So there's this character from a flash game i played that had a 1frame dash that also had a hitbox
Most characters with anchor arms from SpongeBob is bound to be a menace
The big boot from half a mile away. XD
I remember playing some messed up version of M.U.G.E.N that naturally had 3000 or so characters and while most of them were insanely overpowered there was one who took the crown.
Dark Chun-Li. If you pressed a certain button the AI would suddenly take over and shit hit the fan. Glad I'm not photoreceptive in terms of epilepsy.
jmcrofts=awesome
My brain immediately goes to Ivan Ooze from Power Rangers: The Fighting on SNES, stupidly busted zoner with a button that beats practically every button in the game besides the Thunder Megazord's DP, a fireball that bracks and beats out all other fireballs in the game and leads to full combo, and a fire column that OTGs and anti-airs. Also, Ivan Ooze is immune to lows and grabs because he has permanent flight.
Also, he has a move that gives him a prolonged invincible state and shoots fireballs that he can use out of hitstun.
0:33 Satinsect boot has enter the chat
Whoever created Cattydox's movement animations only has fleeting knowledge of how a human being anatomy functions. They may possibly some sort of deep space alien or AI that recently acquired sentience.
from what I've been told akuma is a menace in most games
Zero from Mega Man X also tends to be a meta pick in every game he ever makes it into.
to be fair, if we are talking about actually most broken, there are characters achieve comical levels of busted. For example, I remember this one 3d xman fighting game that has a character with a fullscreen command grab infinite. I think the title isnt ment to be taken tooooo seriously.
Akuma is only REALLY broken in Super Turbo, where he's outright banned in most tournaments. Then there are a few other games where he is/was definitively top tier (SFA3 in V-ism, 2I, Vanilla SF4, seasons 2-3 of SF5).
He is a top tier in most of the games he is in, but he was only broken in his first game, which was Super Turbo. This was because he was a secret character in that game, who had no changes from his final boss version.
He had one of the easiest and earliest infinites in MvC 3 before being nerfed
For me the most OP boss in fighting games is yhe boss in Arcana Hearts 2. I have a hard time back then cuz most of Her attacks are whole map. Not just whole screen.
Reminds me of that one Power Rangers character, the guy who can fly and has all these fullscreen projectiles so nobody can touch him
Perfectly balanced
Satinsect looks hilariously dumb for sure, but he can still die if he gets hit. I still haven't seen anything on the level of Ivan Ooze, who can literally beat any other character by mashing one special move.
The JM cup is the equivalent of the million dollar belt 💰
This is strong contender of being most broken character in fighting game but wasn't there flying/hovering final boss in one fighting game who has ranged attacks too? So you cant use low kicks, can't sweep and it controls the distance. Don't remember if this boss was unlockable and playable. Edit: Yes, found it. It was Ivan Ooze on some 16 bit? Power Rangers fighting game.
Stealth in Slap Happy Rhythm Busters
That win pose 🤣
His win pose is so obnoxious as well lmao
Putting pressure on him like a soccer mom
I wonder if Cell from DBZ Hyper Dimension is still more broken. He's definitely a bit more difficult to play in that not everything clears the whole screen, but he has a frame 1 full screen grab that knocks down and a wake up unblockable. More specifically he can do a move on jump in that has to be blocked high, and he can land and do a low kick before the game allows the blocking opponent to recover from block stun and switch to a low a block if he does it late enough. He can set up a Cell Jr. bomb on wake up so they can't reversal the jump in, and just go from there. It's a guaranteed 10-0 TOD against every single matchup in the game if he times the throw at round start perfectly.
Fight Fever Fightcade Frenzy when? Is @jmcrofts ready for Taekwondo action?
honestly either Vanilla SF4 Sagat, or Yun from SSF4
Fun Tournament! Glad I could take it with nothing but pure fundamentals 😌
Satinsect -Thee most broken character I've EVER seen.
Look up the video "Ivan ooze is broken" for a real eye-opener
Precursor for Fahkumram
I was going to say Ivan Ooze, but this might be close.
MK Gold sektor is pretty up there. Missile spam and a gun go a long way.
